Seventy-eight percent of voters said that a candidates' support or opposition to the national emergency would factor into the next election, which outpaces previous polls about how much the Trump tax cut legislation and Obamacare votes would factor into the 2018 midterm elections. Inside a private luncheon with other Republican senators after the Pence gathering, Tillis made the case that if the White House agreed to some form of Lee's legislation, that would mean a president would be giving up some of his executive powers - a rarity, according to a person briefed on the closed-door discussion. Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Rand Paul of Kentucky. A Tillis aide did not return messages left for him.

The disapproval resolution passed the Democratically-controlled House by a wide margin and garnered enough Republican public support to pass the Senate. Although he said Trump has the power for his current declaration, McConnell said Republican senators were now questioning: "Was it too broad back in the '70s when it was passed?"

Rep. Brad Sherman (D-CA) said, "One could imagine a President who committed a felony and the House simply decided, for the good of the country, it wasn't an important felony, it was just a mistake, it's something we can deal with after a presidential term".

But approval of the resolution would highlight a clash in which Trump was being forced to protect his signature campaign promise by vetoing legislation sent to him by a Republican-led Senate. Congress has never before voted to overturn a president's emergency declaration.

Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, is among a handful of Republicans who have yet to announce how they'll vote.

Under a 1976 law, presidents have wide discretion in determining when a national emergency has occurred.

GOP Sens. Mike Lee of Utah and Todd Young of IN were also IN discussions with the White House about related legislation that would curb the ability of future presidents to declare national emergencies.

Lee's proposal says a presidential emergency would last 30 days unless Congress votes to extend it.

A vote on Lee's plan was expected after Congress returns from a recess later this month. Trump had repeatedly said Mexico would pay for the wall, which is not happening.

President Trump has rejected a GOP measure that would change the law on future emergency declarations, eliminating what appears to be the final last-ditch attempt to avoid the Senate publicly rebuking the President on his border wall declaration.

The senator cautioned that Trump's position may still change - "It is only Wednesday, and it is the Trump administration".

The strongest chance of blocking Trump's border emergency is likely several lawsuits filed by Democratic state attorneys general, environmental groups and others.
